Flin Flon shuts out Melfort and head to the Itech Finals

The Finals are set thanks the an upset in the Itech Conference. The Flin Flon Bombers once again shut out the Melfort Mustangs to win the series 4-2.

Barrett Penner scored what would eventually be the game winning goal at 5:37 of the first period while Dennis Kubat added another at 17:52 of the second to make it 2-0 after two periods of play. That is all the offence the Bombers would need as goaltender Carsen Chubak turned aside 13 shots in the third period and 27 in total for the shutout. Chubak has been playing some great hockey since stepping in for Calvin Bartel but will be in for a huge test when they take on the Humboldt Broncos.

Itech Conference Finals:
Flin Flon VS Humboldt

Sherwood Conference Finals:
Melville VS Kindersley

Schedules will be posted when they are available.

You all may laugh at me now but when it happens i will be the one laughing at all of you. Bombers in 5. Nelson steals game 2 for the Broncos. The bombers outshoot, out hit, and out play them all 5 games. You would believe me if you would have seen them play this last series against Melfort like i did.
